Back to Blogging

It has been almost exactly two years since my last blog entry. I used to LOVE blogging. Of course, that was before Facebook became the rage and I could post all our daily happenings and pictures there. However, in the past couple weeks, it has been put on my heart to start writing again- to start capturing my thoughts and memories for my family.

So much has happened in the past two years. . . . many many blessed events, and also some heart break and learning lessons. I love reading back through blog posts and I especially enjoy looking back through the pictures of our lives. I miss writing. I miss communicating my heart. Many had warned me how much I "wear my heart on my sleeve" and how I maybe share too much at times. My family is more of a private, reserved bunch. However, I want to bring God glory in my life and so I want to expose my weaknesses to bring Him glory. In fact, my Bible verse this year is: 

2 Corinthians 12:9-10 :  9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

In knowing that I am a REAL person with REAL feelings, REAL struggles, and REAL faith, I hope to bring God glory for the MANY things He is doing and has done in my life.
